How do you deactivate the alarm system in the Ford Fiesta 1.4 TDCi?

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 5, MK 5, MK V - Years 2002-2008
Part: Checks and maintenance

The immobilizer anti-theft system of the Ford Fiesta can be compared to many other Ford cars in terms of the possibility of deactivating it, and in this tutorial we find confirmation, in fact the car shown is not a Ford Fiesta, but the method can easily be considered for it as well. The plastic ring shown is installed on the ignition key cylinder and is coded to recognize the key code and unlock the aforementioned immobilizer. In case of problems, we disassemble the ring and bypass it by connecting the electrical wires at the back.
